Mussenden at Dawn

This is a recent shot I took at Downhill Beach at dawn. Read more here:

Dusk Till Dawn

It is natural when taking landscape photography to visit a location more than once in the hope of getting the perfect conditions for the shot you are trying to achieve, but I have never visited a location in such quick succession as last weekend at Mussenden Temple. Read more here.

Knockcree

Landscape photography is always a bit unpredictable, especially with the weather this time of year. Even though I got drenched and beaten with gale force winds yesterday, it was worth waiting, as there will always be that short period of 3 to 4 minutes when you get to set up and take your shot. A lot of decisions to make in a short space of time.

More available here.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

FIRST IMPRESSIONS is my first book. It has been produced as part of a promotional drive to get my work out there. I have added an electronic copy on facebook to let you check it out at your leisure. You may see a copy of this when you are out and about over the next few weeks.

Downhill

This is a small section of beach below Mussenden Temple in Downhill. I will be surprised if anyone has been here as it involved jumping across an operational railway track and I had a mild fear that the tide would cut me off. Standing in the usual predictable spots would certainly be easier.  

Signature

Towards the end of last month I had the opportunity of visiting the ‘Signature’ project in Belfast. This building ‘Titanic Belfast’ has to be one of the most iconic structures I have ever set eyes on. Below are a few shots I have processed, with more available here.

During my visit I had the pleasure of spending a few hours with Donal McCann, the official photographer on the scheme. If you would like the view some of Donal’s images please visit his website on: http://www.donalmccann.com/signatureproject.html

Panoramic Landscape

Taken from the top of Slieve Muck overlooking the Mourne Mountains in Northern Ireland, this finished piece is built up of 12 high resolution images over 4 exposures and took around 2 hours in pure standstill laptop processing time (4 hours overall). With over 92M pixels this piece will make fantastic wall decor.

North Coast Shots

Having spent a few days up north this week I couldn’t help myself but take some more shots along this outstanding coastline. This is becoming a great little project of mine. More here:

Landscape - Galgorm

I spotted this photographic opportunity whilst out for a walk yesterday. I didn’t have my camera with me at the time (a blessing looking back now) but I revisited the location later that evening to find the sun was in the perfect position in the sky. What you see below was the exact way I wanted the final image to look even before I had released the shutter. I hope you like.

Mournes

Last Sunday I had the pleasure of spending the day with a close friend on mine in the Mournes. He obviously thought I was a lot fitter that I am, by starting the adventure off by heading up Slieve Muck. It was well worth the effort and once my heart rate had lowered to an acceptable level I got some great shots. Coming Soon!
